Annual Test Session / High School Competition: Sat. Dec. 9, 2023

Our annual test session and Red Panther High School Competition will be held on Saturday, December 9th.  Please review the attached registration form and discuss testing with your coach.  The test session is open to current CIFSC members and associate members only.  

Back by popular demand, we will again be offering a club resale opportunity on this day as well.  Refer to the attached flyer for details.  

As a reminder, if your skater is participating in either the test session or the high school competition, you will need to complete two hours of volunteer time during that day.  For test session only skaters, your hours will apply towards your club volunteer hours.  For high school skaters, your first two hours will fulfil your high school volunteer requirement.  Any additional hours worked will count towards your club volunteer hours. Please follow this link: https://signup.com/go/GeowPHO

Open Volunteer Positions

Good Morning,

The Crystal Ice Figure Skating Club relies on volunteers in every aspect of our organization. While we have set a minimum requirement for volunteer hours, we are so appreciative of those that exceed those requirements. Without the support and commitment of our volunteers, many club events would not be possible. Even if your skater isn’t involved in a particular event, yet, we want to maintain opportunities for when skaters are eligible. 

We have several volunteer positions opening as we prepare for a large graduating senior class this upcoming season. Committing to one of the positions below would involve working with the current volunteer for this season to learn the role, and then taking over the position during the 2024-2025 season. If you have any questions about what the position entails, please reach out to the current coordinator. Filling any one of these positions will fulfill your 5 (or 9 for multiple skaters) volunteer hours. This would not include your test session, HS team, or Ice Show hours required (if your skater participates). 

  • High School Competition Coordinator (October-December) Current Coordinator- Jill Przekurat jillprzekurat@gmail.com (fulfills your required 2 hours for HS Team)
  • High School Team Billing (September-March) Current Coordinator- Terrie Tauferner rtauf@frontiernet.net (fulfills your required 2 hours for HS Team)
  • Rink Monitor Coordinator & Scheduling (this job is a year round) Current Coordinator- Tieoni Riley rileysat@aol.com
  • Riverfront Rendezvous Soda Stand Coordinators (April-July) We have 2 coordinators for this position, we need to fill 1. Current Coordinators are Jen Lindsey and Terrie Tauferner- rtauf@frontiernet.net
  • 50/50 Raffle Coordinator (Ice Show Weekend) We would like to increase this from two coordinators to four. So we are looking for four people total. Current Coordinators- Terrie and Ryan Tauferner rtauf@frontiernet.net (fulfills your required Ice Show Hours)
  • Ice Show Yard Sign Coordinator (March-April) Current Coordinator- Tieoni Riley rileysat@aol.com

Thank you for your consideration,

CIFSC Board

Ice Show 2023: Volunteers Needed!

We are still in need of a few more volunteers for Ice Show Weekend. Please consider signing up: https://signup.com/go/GeowPHO

Volunteers should stop by the ticket table on the West end of the building and pick up their volunteer name tag. Volunteers helping backstage (skate shop, Zamboni end, and freestyle locker rooms) DO NOT need a ticket for that show. All other volunteers will need a ticket.

Rehearsals resume this Sunday, March 26th. Please refer to your rehearsal schedule. 

Technical and Dress Rehearsals are mandatory. For an explanation of how these nights will be run, please review the following posts:

We can’t wait to see the skaters hit the ice. They have been working incredibly hard!
